Day 16-Scavenger Hunt

Ok so I missed two days but blog magic allows me to pretend that never happened. >.<

Today’s prompt was….

Today we are going on a little scavenger hunt!!  Below, you will find a simple scavenger hunt that I created for you all.  With this list, you will find everything on your list and then create a beautiful journal page with it!  So fun!!


The list of items we were supposed to scavenge for are…

1.Something red
2.a dictionary definition
3.a map
4.a footnote
5.a ticket stub
6.a postmarked stamp
7.a business card
8.something with a circle on it
9.a piece of a security envelope
10.a name tag
11.an illustration of a chihuahua
12.the head of your favorite blog…  (My Favorite blog)

I really had fun with this prompt, some items were tricky to find. So I had to rely on google for some help. But most of the items I scanned from things I had lying around the house.

See you tomorrow with prompt 17. :D And remember you can still join the journaling fun.

Day 15-Needs/Wants

So today’s prompt was a tad difficult. Because I know what I ‘want’, but what I want isn’t always exactly what I ‘need’.

Today’s prompt was….

Needs and Wants.  What are some things that you need right now?  What are some things that you want right now?  Sometimes these two things are hard to discern right?


But some things could be considered to be both a want and a need. I want a car, because I need to drive to school, or work or home. Of course I need a job before that  I guess… also a license to drive it. >.< Also cheesecake is a want but if seen as food then it can be seen as a need. lol Ok that might just deal with healthy food and not sweets but whatever. lol I totally forgot to put this on my want list, but I WANT TRUEBLOOD SEASON 4 TO HURRY UP!!!!

Well see you tomorrow with prompt 16. :D

Day 14-Favorite Quotes

I have so many favorite quotes that its hard to choose.

So if you haven’t already guessed it, today’s prompt was….

What is your favorite quote?  Mine changes a lot because different things inspire me during the different seasons in my life.  Quotes are powerful reminders of the wisdom we can gather and share with others.

Of course I had to pick some of my favorite quotes written by Neil Gaiman.  Of course my favorite quote from him is like a paragraph long so I decided to go with the shorter quotes for my page. Plus this one was a tad negative so I tried to pick quotes of his that sent a sort of positive message.

“Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn’t it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life…You give them a piece of you. They didn’t ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn’t your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like ‘maybe we should be just friends’ turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It’s a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love.”

See you tomorrow with prompt 15. :)

Day 13-Family Tree

This prompt was so fun to do. I had trouble figuring out what I wanted to draw but then I decided to draw my family as the Keroppi family. I love Sanrio, especially Keroppi. XD

If you haven’t already guessed, today’s prompt was…

Create a simple family tree.  Do this in a way that works best for you.  You can write names, doodle portraits, place actual photos, whatever!! It’s up to you :)  Use this prompt to document your family; as small or as large as it may be!!

This was such a fun prompt to draw out, I was extremely excited because I have such a great family and I am so grateful to be apart of it. :D Love you all!!!! I wanted to add my cats, but I wasn’t sure what to draw them as. I was gonna draw them as flies but frogs eat flies so that wouldn’t have work. And then I was gonna draw them as cat fish but still didn’t seem to work. So I ended up leaving them out. :/ But they are a part of my family as well and will probably add them in later. :D

See you tomorrow with prompt 14. :)

Day 12-Lines!

I had a lot of fun with today’s prompt. :D Already on day 12, its crazy how time flies.

Today’s prompt was…

Completely fill your page with line design!  Line design and geometrics have complete consumed my inspiration boards for awhile now.  The simple, yet complex designs are so aesthetically pleasing for me.  Have fun trying out line design, patterns, and geometric shapes on your page today.

See you tomorrow with prompt 13!!! :D

Day 11-Full of…

Do you ever get that feeling that something is missing, that you are forgetting something important? Lately I’ve been feeling like that. :/

Today’s prompt was…

What is your heart full of?  What are the things that are consuming your heart these days.  This could be things that are hurting your heart, breaking your heart, or making your heart so full of love.

I know I’ve told myself not to worry as much, but that is easier said than done. Lately I feel like I’m not doing something something. My heart is broken because of this worry. Its not broken due to the end of a relationship. Its just, I feel like I’m wasting my life and not living it to the fullest. I hope I learn what it is that I’m doing wrong. Because I hate worrying about things. Luckily its just parts of life that I feel like I’m living incorrectly, I have a wonderful family and awesome friends. All who love me a great deal so its not as if I’m saying my life sucks. Because it doesn’t. I just wish I could find out what is making me feel this way. I want to Carpe diem the fuck out of life. But sadly I can’t. :/

Sorry for being on the negative side of things…I’ll try to be more positive tomorrow with prompt 12.

Day 10- Song Day

I had trouble with this prompt. But only because I have soooo many favorite songs. And I’m not that great at illustrating. :/ But I still had fun with today’s prompt.

Today’s prompt was…..

Illustrate your all time favorite song :)

So yeah I had trouble picking a song, in my painting class a couple semester ago we had an assignment where we had to paint a song. And I thought it was difficult back then as well. But I chose a Beatles song then and it was easier to illustrate a Beatles song. :D For this prompt I just put my ipod on shuffle and picked the first song that played. It just happened to be Vertigo by Anya Marina. Which I’ve mention before on my blog. I feel like most of my journal pages have been pretty sloppy. :/ But I’m still having tons of fun making them.

See you tomorrow with prompt 11! :D

Whatcha Doing?

Another entry!!!!

So today was my second class of math and I still feel the same about math. I HATE IT!!!! I will probably have to go to tutoring every now and then. But I will do whatever it takes to pass this stupid class. Anyway so I fully intended to vlog today, but I just didn’t have a lot to say…well now I do and I could have very well filmed a vlog but we went to Hastings today and I bought two books. Everlasting by Alyson Noël is the finale to the The Immortal series and One Day by David Nicholls. Which brings me to the next thing I want to mention.

MOVIES!!!

One Day was also made into a movie, it should be coming out some time this summer. I’m soooo excited for it. But until I get to watch it, I will read the book and then be able to compare and contrast. Another movie that I want to watch is  The Art of Getting By, it comes out next week. But sadly my small town wont have any showings. They never show any sundance films!!! WHY THE HELL NOT?! I love indie films, those are usually the best.  But I can’t wait to see these movies.  Now on to a movie I watched the other night. An Invisible Sign, it was soooooo freaking cute. These are the types of movies I love. And I’m always left with such a happy feeling after watching them. Now this movie involves math, which is the  pain of my existence. However, I couldn’t help but fall in love with the main character. I’ve never  actually been a fan of Jessica Alba but she was so adorable in this movie. So if you enjoy cute artsy movies, then I recommend this one.

And of course I’m gonna be vain real quick and add a picture of myself. XD

Song of the day is Sunny Day by Joy Williams, I heard this song during the credits of An Invisible Sign and just fell in love with it.

Day 9-Randomness

 

Today is day 9 of the 30 day journal challenge. I had a lot of fun with today’s prompt, I just scrambled through my room  and found a bunch of random memories. :D

Today’s prompt was…

Completely fill your page with something random.  Leave your pen in your desk today and find beauty in the every day random things around you.

I just glued in the random things I found on my dresser and night stand. For example, I have a bunch of ticket stubs, after going to a movie I usually keep the stub as a souvenir. I have a bunch but I just picked a few of the first ones I saw. I also used some stickers and scrapbook supplies. Also a friend mailed me a card and I noticed she used Yoda stamps, so I glued in a Yoda stamp, because who doesn’t love Yoda? XD
See you tomorrow with prompt 10. :D This is soooooooooo much fun.
